I’m not the person to tell my story, but it’s been a long and working one. “
“The journey isn’t over, and it is just getting started and it’s going to be an unforgettable and one for the history and blessed to do it with (defensive backs) coach Terry (Smith) and (assistant recruiting coordinator) coach (Rashad) Elby, therefor I will be continuing my academic and football career at Penn State University.” #LockdownU #WeAre.
With the addition of Robinson, defensive backs coach Terry Smith will look to turn another former junior college transfer into a high-level performer such as Jaquan Brisker and Ji’Ayir Brown before him.
